We report a case of fixed prosthetic treatment for poor esthetics due to the position of the maxillary left lateral incisor in a 43-year-old woman. Initial examination revealed no carious lesions, but the tooth axis of the maxillary right canine showed mesial inclination of approximately 15°. Orthodontic treatment was first proposed but was declined by the patient as they did not wish to undergo a prolonged period of therapy. Therefore, recovery by extraction of the maxillary right lateral incisor and prosthetic treatment was proposed as an alternative. The method to be used for application of a 3-unit fixed partial denture and implant treatment was explained to the patient. She refused to give consent to this plan as well, however, due to concerns regarding the need to cut a lot from a non-problematic tooth and the length of time such treatment would require. Therefore, the problem was finally treated by application of a cantilever single-retainer fixed partial denture while giving sufficient consideration to extraction and occlusal contact. Lithium disilicate was used for the material of the prothesis. At 1 year after completion of treatment, no problem was observed with either the prosthetic appliance or the abutment teeth.
